You and I know that, but if I get it by a truck...

"portupgrade -bcDivR mailscanner"

just might save the day ;^)

Jan, any timeframe on a new FreeBSD port of MailScanner? Looking at the

logo change for Memorial Day. Why do they choose to do logos
for other non-international holidays, but nothing for
Veterans?

Maybe they forgot who made that choice possible.
